Thomas Betts XPLFL112 Liquid-tight Conduit Coupling 1/2 in

Product Description

The THOMAS BETTS XPLFL112 is a bronze, non-insulated conduit coupling designed for liquid-tight flexible conduit systems. It uses a compression connection method to create a secure, moisture-resistant joint between two sections of liquid-tight flexible conduit. Rated for use in hazardous locations and water-resistant environments, this coupling is built for demanding industrial and commercial electrical installations. The 1/2 inch trade size fits standard half-inch liquid-tight flexible conduit. Licensed electricians and instrumentation technicians install this fitting where conduit runs require a reliable, code-compliant mid-run connection in wet or hazardous-classified areas.

This coupling is suited for industrial plants, commercial facilities, and any installation where liquid-tight flexible conduit must be joined at a coupling point rather than terminated at a box or enclosure. Its hazardous location rating makes it appropriate for Class I and Class II environments where moisture ingress and exposure to corrosive atmospheres are concerns. The bronze construction resists corrosion in harsh service conditions, and the flexible connector shape accommodates minor misalignment in conduit runs.

Key Features

• Bronze construction provides corrosion resistance in wet and chemically aggressive environments
• Compression connection type delivers a secure, vibration-resistant joint without tools beyond standard hand wrenches
• Rated for hazardous locations and water-resistant applications
• Non-insulated design for standard grounding continuity through the fitting body
• Flexible connector shape accommodates minor angular misalignment in conduit runs
• 1/2 inch trade size fits standard half-inch liquid-tight flexible conduit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or new-installation fitting for 1/2 inch trade size liquid-tight flexible conduit systems in hazardous location and water-resistant applications.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician in accordance with NEC Article 350 governing liquid-tight flexible metal conduit. De-energize the circuit and verify the absence of voltage before working on any conduit system. Hand-tighten the compression nut first, then snug with a wrench — do not overtighten bronze fittings, as the material can crack under excessive torque. Confirm the fitting is listed and rated for the specific hazardous location classification of the installation area before use.
